Well, I dont use them on my paint... But I dont seem to have any lint problems. I think I did get lint once, but not something that happens every time.
I bought some 'glass cleaning' (similar to a waffle weave) towels online a year or so ago and really have been happy on how they perform. IMO the best towel to use on glass.
If I remember correctly, the effectiveness of newspaper is not what it use to be. Its having to do with the newspapers changing over to a soy based ink. (it is cheaper). Compared to what was used previous, the cleaning ability was somewhat compromised.

These towels, combined with Meguiar's Glass Cleaner Concentrate always leave me with super clean, lint free windows. All my other MF's seem to leave lint behind.

Why do we drive on a Parkway, and park on a Driveway
I especially like to use newspapers in the winter, along with NXT glass cleaner, when cleaning salt spray off the windshield. Using newspaper really cuts down on the streaking!
If you use newspaper, use the black and white sections, not the color ads or comics.
After several attempts at making my glass streak free, I have come to the conclusion that a 100% Cotton Terry Towel with good nap is the way to go. Don't know if it's me, but some MF's tend to leave little fibers on my glass, which are only really visible under certain lighting conditions (especially at night.)
I personally don't care for the glass towels all that much because they seem to have to much drag against glass surfaces, which usually means the towels stays put, while the only thing that goes across the glass is my bare palm. In my experience a good Cotton Terry's performs extremely well, and they can be found virtually anywhere. I'm still debating on useing one of the expensive egyptian thread count ones my girl hides from me when I tell her I'm going to clean my car. Try this out maybe it will work for you. If it doesn't then at least you can use the towel for other applications.

Polishing Paint removes the stress in my life, and the swirls on my car.
At work we use newpaper to clean windows. Works better than any kind of paper towel i've ever used. No streaks or nothing, just make sure you use the black and white pages unless you like color streaks.
For my personal car I use the glass towels from ADS and they work awsome.
